REUTERS/Carlos Osorio/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsOTTAWA, Nov 16 (Reuters) - A 22-year-old self-confessed Canadian white nationalist who deliberately ran over and killed four members of a Muslim family in his truck in 2021 was found guilty of first degree murder on Thursday. The jury took around six hours to convict Nathaniel Veltman, who attacked the family in the Ontario town of London. It sets a precedent against white nationalist terrorism," said Abdul Fattah Twakkal, an imam at the London Muslim Mosque. It was the worst attack against Canadian Muslims since a man gunned down six members of a Quebec City mosque in 2017. In the manifesto, Veltman wrote "I am a white nationalist" and said white people were "facing genocide".

This frame grab from video footage taken by AFPTV shows people out in the open in Marrakesh September 9, 2023, following a 6.8 magnitude earthquake that struck Morocco. A rare, powerful earthquake struck Morocco late Friday night, killing hundreds of people and damaging buildings from villages in the Atlas Mountains to the historic city of Marrakech. In 1960, a magnitude 5.8 tremor struck near the Moroccan city of Agadir and caused thousands of deaths. The Agadir quake prompted changes in construction rules in Morocco, but many buildings, especially rural homes, are not built to withstand such tremors. In 2004, a 6.4 magnitude earthquake near the Mediterranean coastal city of Al Hoceima left more than 600 dead.

That's where a number of early-stage drug delivery companies come in — and most are flying under investors' radar. Drug delivery tends to be a "roll-up sector," explained Edward Nash, an analyst at Canaccord Genuity. Nash recently looked at four companies operating in drug delivery: Rani Therapeutics , Biora Therapeutics , Avalyn Pharma and Elektrofi. At the moment, the most effective GLP-1 medications for weight loss are delivered via a subcutaneous injection. The verstility of the Rani pill also is encouraging, according to Harrison, since it could be used with a wide range of drugs.

☆ 'We can't afford anything': Turkey's cost-of-living crisis threatens Erdogan's re-election
▼ + stars: | 2023-05-08 | by ( Ali Kucukgocmen | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +5 min

But a cost-of-living crisis sparked by Erdogan's unorthodox economic programme over the past 1-1/2 years has eroded his popularity, posing the biggest electoral challenge to his 20-year hold on power. The parliamentary race remains on a razor edge, with the opposition seen potentially clinching a narrow majority. Food prices surged 54% year-on-year in April, with headline inflation dropping to 43.7% after peaking in October at 85.5%, the highest under Erdogan's rule. It began to surge after a currency crisis in late 2021, sparked by a series of interest rate cuts, in line with Erdogan's unorthodox views. But many AKP voters still believe only Erdogan can fix the economy, or blame other factors for its current state.
